Leviticus 8-10 priests ordained priests kept holy Leviticus 21 Ch. 7:21-38 the priestly share Ch. 6:8-7:21 How priests do it Leviticus 22 Holy Offerings Ch.5:14-6:7 Guilt offering Ch. 4-5:13 Sin offering Chapter 3 Fellowship offering Chapter 2 Grain offering Leviticus 1-7 Offerings Chapter 1 Burnt offering How? Chapter 22 Holy way of sacrifice

4 How? Priests offered substitutionary sacrifices Hebrews 9:22 In fact, the law requires that nearly everything be cleansed with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness.

5 Genesis 3:15 And I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your offspring and hers; he will crush your head, and you will strike his heel." The Ultimate Sacrifice was anticipated by the very first sacrifice Genesis 3:21 The LORD God made garments of skin for Adam and his wife and clothed them.

6 thank you give to get Genesis 4:3 In the course of time Cain brought some of the fruits of the soil as an offering to the LORD. Through sacrifice God and mankind met Genesis 4:4 But Abel brought fat portions from some of the firstborn of his flock. Genesis 4:5 The LORD looked with favor on Abel and his offering but on Cain and his offering he did not look with favor. Hebrews 11:4 By faith Abel offered God a better sacrifice than Cain did.

7 Genesis 8:20 Then Noah built an altar to the LORD and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. Through sacrifice God reassured Noah

8 Exodus 10:24-25 Then Pharaoh summoned Moses and said, "Go, worship the LORD. Even your women and children may go with you; only leave your flocks and herds behind." But Moses said, "You must allow us to have sacrifices and burnt offerings to present to the LORD our God. Moses left Egypt in order to sacrifice

9 Exodus 24:7,8 Then he took the Book of the Covenant and read it to the people. They responded, "We will do everything the LORD has said; we will obey. Moses then took the blood, sprinkled it on the people and said, "This is the blood of the covenant that the LORD has made with you in accordance with all these words." The Sinai Covenant was sealed with blood

10 Deuteronomy 12:5,7 But you are to seek the place the LORD your God will choose from among all your tribes to put his Name there for his dwelling. To that place you must go. There, in the presence of the LORD your God, you and your families shall eat and shall rejoice in everything you have put your hand to, because the LORD your God has blessed you. Sacrifice was central to the form of worship established by the LORD for Israel at Mt. Sinai

11 Numbers 15:22, Now if you unintentionally fail to keep any of these commands the LORD gave and if this is done unintentionally without the community being aware of it, then the whole community is to offer a burnt (100%) offering as an aroma pleasing to the LORD, along with its prescribed grain offering and drink offering and a sin offering. The priest is to make atonement for the whole Israelite community, and they will be forgiven for "OOPS" sins

12 Numbers 15:30,31 But anyone who sins defiantly, (literally with a high hand ) whether native-born or alien, blasphemes the LORD, and that person must be cut off from his people. Because he has despised the LORD's word and broken his commands, that person must surely be cut off; his guilt remains on him. Sacrifice was meant for believers, not for unbelievers!!!!!! never for hard hearts

13 Sacrifices could be PRIVATE for a sinner desiring forgiveness at any time or PUBLIC for the weakness of the nation at appointed times!morning & evening! on the sabbath! on the first of the month! on the pilgrim festivals! on New Year s Day! on the Day of Atonements Leviticus 4:1,2 Say to the Israelites: When anyone sins unintentionally and does what is forbidden in any of the Lord s commands [THEN]... [sacrifice.] Numbers 28:2 Give this command to the Israelites: See that you present to me at the appointed time my offerings made by fire, as an aroma pleasing to me.'

14 Sacrifices required the blood of a LIVING CREATURE shadow 1 John 1:7 the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. reality Leviticus 17:11 For the life of a creature is in the blood, and I have given it to you to make atonement for yourselves on the altar; it is the blood that makes atonement for one's life.

19 There were FOUR types of BLOODY SACRIFICE the whole BURNT offering the FELLOWSHIP offering the SIN offering the GUILT offering also done before Moses new at Mt. Sinai and ONE non-bloody the GRAIN offering There were SIX steps to the offering of any particular bloody SACRIFICE *plus skin, cut up, wash #or pour, smear, dash or put added to the four BRING LEAN ON SLAY* SPRINKLE # BURN DISPOSE of done by the sinner if non-public or by the priest if public done by the priest in every case

24 shado w REALITY Numbers 19:2,3,6,9 Tell the Israelites to bring you a red heifer without defect or blemish and that has never been under a yoke. Give it to Eleazar the priest; it is to be taken outside the camp and slaughtered in his presence The priest is to take some cedar wood, hyssop and scarlet wool and throw them onto the burning heifer "A man who is clean shall gather up the ashes of the heifer and put them in a ceremonially clean place outside the camp. They shall be kept by the Israelite community for use in the water of cleansing; it is for purification from sin.

25 Hebrews 9:13,14 The blood of goats and bulls and the ashes of a heifer sprinkled on those who are ceremonially unclean sanctify them so that they are outwardly clean. How much more, then, will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from acts that lead to death, so that we may serve the living God! reality shadow

26 Israel's sins robbed sacrifices of their significance and worth Amos 5:21,22 "I hate, I despise your religious feasts; I cannot stand your assemblies. Though you bring choice fellowship offerings I will have no regard for them. Even though you bring me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them.

27 Psalm 40: 4,7,8 Blessed is the man who makes the LORD his trust Sacrifice and offering you did not desire burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not require. Then I said, "Here I am, I have come-- it is written about me in the scroll. 影兒 shadow shad ow reality Hebrews First he said, "Sacrifices and offerings, burnt offerings and sin offerings you did not desire Then he said, "Here I am, I have come to do your will." He sets aside the first to establish the second. And by that will, we have been made holy through the sacrifice of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

28 1 Peter 1:1,2 Peter to God's elect who have been chosen according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through the sanctifying work of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and sprinkling by his blood: Grace and peace be yours in abundance. 1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin. Revelation 1:5,6 To him who loves us and has freed us from our sins by his blood, and has made us to be a kingdom and priests to serve his God and Father-- to him be glory and power for ever and ever! Amen.

29 Romans 8:3,4 For what the law was powerless to do God did by sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful man to be a sin offering. And so he condemned sin in sinful man, in order that the righteous requirements of the law might be fully met in us s h a d o w reality

30 s h a d o w reality Hebrews 13:11,12 The high priest carries the blood of animals into the Most Holy Place as a sin offering, but the bodies are burned outside the camp. And so Jesus also. suffered outside the city gate to make the people holy through his own blood.

31 Mark 12:32-34 To love him [God] with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices. When Jesus saw that he had answered wisely, he said to him, "You are not far from the kingdom of God." s h a d o w reality

32 Ephesians 2:12,13 Remember that at that time you were separate from Christ, excluded from citizenship in Israel and foreigners to the covenants of the promise, without hope and without God in the world. But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far away have been brought near through the blood of Christ. reality

33 shadow reality 1 Peter 1:18,19 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your forefathers, but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect.
